So Much Love - Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Moments Release

 Good morning! Today I've got another card to share using some of the Beautiful Moments Release from Simon Says Stamp! I created THIS card for the release, and had a few of the lovely florals leftover that I had to put to use - they were too pretty to waste!

I also had an unused die cut Rounded Heart, and that stamped sentiment from Good Greetings 1 that I hadn't used on another project, so I added the sentiment, and tucked the florals and greenery from Wildflower Bucket die around it on the heart. I had a panel already embossed with the Fanfare Embossing folder, so I tore the edges all the way around for some texture, then wrapped and tied some Lawn Fawn white twine around that panel before adhering to my white cardbase with thin foam adhesive. I added the heart with more foam adhesive, and then embellished with a few Clear Dazzling Gems, and added Nuvo glitter drops to the centers of the flowers for extra sparkle!

Raise a Glass - Simon Says Stamp April 2026 Card Kit

 Good morning! I'm dropping by to share another card using the newest April 2026 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit - A Little Artsy! This month's kit has lots of bold and bright elements and some creative twists! The included stamp set by the same name has some coordinating dual use stencils included for lots of fun techniques. There are some rub-ons, pattern paper, twine, distress paint, black splatter, and that's all not to mention the cardstock, overlays, and mini distress oxide inks! And, there are  some great add on items available that coordinate wonderfully with this kit, and are live in the store now as well!

The monthly card kit has even more perks now when you sign up for the Subscription service! There is a video HERE you can watch to learn more! 

For this card, I decided to focus on the fun celebration toast in the rub-ons, and pair it with some of the fun pattern papers in the kit! I trimmed out some colorful squares from one piece of pattern paper, and then applied a rub-on to each one. I tore a bit of a scrap of paper to wrap around one of those panels, and made a loopy bow from some of the black twine in the kit that I attached to another with my Tiny Attacher. I tore the edges of another piece of pattern paper, added a tiny butterfly rub-on in the top left corner, and then adhered over some of the black cardstock in the kit to make it really pop! I added all my decorated tiny panels with foam adhesive, then embellished with a sprinkle of Dazzling Gems in black for a bold touch of sparkle! Here are more photos of this fun card:

Keep on Dreaming - Simon Says Stamp April 2026 Card Kit

 Hello - we have an early surprise drop of the card kit for this month! I'm dropping by to share my first card using the newest April 2026 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit - A Little Artsy! This month's kit has lots of bold and bright elements and some creative twists! The included stamp set by the same name has some coordinating dual use stencils included for lots of fun techniques. There are some rub-ons, pattern paper, twine, distress paint, black splatter, and that's all not to mention the cardstock, overlays, and mini distress oxide inks! And, there are  some great add on items available that coordinate wonderfully with this kit, and are live in the store now as well!

While much of this kit is bright and bold and fun - I love how this more light and airy card turned out! I started off by using one of the add-ons - the Petal Lattice stencil - along with the Distress Oxide Inks I got in my kit. Those will vary, but you can always mix and match others from your stash! I ink blended a bit in the corner of my cardbase with one color, used the stencil over the top in another color, then for texture, used the Mini Distress Blending Brush in the kit to brush across that in another color for some added texture - I love the tiny lines that adds! I then used a couple of the rub-ons in the kit to layer on the cardbase, and added some of the Black Splatter in the kit. I chose a couple portions of some of the pattern paper in the kit and trimmed them out, added one tiny rub-on in the corner of one, curled up the edges slightly, and adhered with thin foam tape over the top. I rounded off one corner of the cardbase, then finished off with a few Rainbow Dazzling Gems for sparkle! Here is a closer look at this finished card:

Watching You Grow - Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Moments Release

Good morning! I'm back with a tiny, sweet, and simple card using a set I shared before from the Beautiful Moments Release from Simon Says Stamp! It's the same new Rainbow Splash sweet little set that my daughter, Katie, designed! I shared a more layered and intricate card HERE, and a trio of different cards on the Simon Says Stamp blog HERE if you want more inspiration with it!

For this card, I went super sweet and simple with the Budding Blossoms set! The Rainbow Splash collection lends itself so well to these kinds of designs - and I love it! I started off by taking a standard A2 card, and trimming off the bottom to create a square card - so it is 4.25" x 4.25". I did a bit of soft ink blending around the outside with Seafoam ink, then planned my placement and stamped the florals and the bee directly onto my cardbase. I colored them in simply with Copic markers, and then stamped the watering can on Fog cardstock, and die cut with the coordinating die. I popped that up with foam adhesive, and then stamped my sentiment underneath. Finished off with a sprinkle of Dazzling Gems in clear! Here is a closer look at this card:

He is Risen - Simon Says Stamp Limited Edition Easter Card Kit

Good morning! I've got one more card to share using the BRAND NEW and Limited Edition Easter Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp, plus one of the add-ons that are available separately! 

When I was looking through the pretty pattern papers, this one caught my eye, and felt like it would fit so well with the Reverse Blessed Easter sentiment strips that are available separately but released at the same time. There is one sheet of the regular version of these in the kit, but I loved the contrast with the black on the reverse ones. I trimmed the pattern paper into a strip, then backed it with a slightly larger strip of another sheet of pattern paper. I love how the small gingham design almost looks like a scalloped border! I added the sentiment strips that were die cut with the EZ Strips Slanted rectangles, and a good sprinkle of Clear Dazzling Gems to finish off! Here is a closer look at this finished card:

Bold Beautiful Friend - Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Moments Release

Hello! Today I've got a bold and graphic card design featuring a die from the recent Beautiful Moments Release from Simon Says Stamp, paired with some fun Simon Says Stamp colored cardstocks!

I found a color combo on Pinterest that caught my interest, and when I was deciding how to use it, it struck me that it would be fun to just layer up the colored cardstock to match the inspiration piece! I don't seem to have saved it, or I would share a link to it here - sorry about that! But I used Island Blue, Lemon Chiffon, Sunshine, Orange Peel, and Lipstick cardstocks to create the background. Next, I pulled out the new Beautiful Friend die and cut the shadow layer from black for some good contrast, and the detail layer from Altenew Moonstone glitter cardstock for sparkle. I wrapped some Vivant Silver thread around and tied in a bow before adding the sentiment with foam adhesive. I added a secondary sentiment from Reverse Beautiful Friend Sentiment Strips, and finished off with a few Clear Dazzling gems for extra sparkle! Here is a closer look at the finished card:

Full of Blessings - Simon Says Stamp Limited Edition Easter Card Kit

 Good morning! I've got another card to share using the BRAND NEW and Limited Edition Easter Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp! This card has a bit of a fresh but vintage feel to me!

I started off by stamping several of the adorable images from the stamp set in the kit in Nocturne black ink on the Sage cardstock in the kit, then heat embossing with clear ink. Next, I die cut them with the coordinating dies (available to purchase separately). I used the Delicate Lattice stencil with the Butter ink to add some texture to a cardbase created with the Ivory cardstock in the kit, then arranged the images in a cluster, adhering with foam adhesive for dimension. I tied the little metal embellishment in the kit onto the top of the basket with some Lawn Fawn white twine, stamped a sentiment to trim into a banner shape, and added a sprinkle of Butter Dazzling gems for sparkle! Here is a closer look at the finished card:
